My PC is equipped with an NVIDIA GT-430, if I install any version of nvidia drivers I lose the original LM splash screen. Can anyone tell me how I can bring back the LM splash screen, after installing nvidia drivers?

I am using default open drivers with Ati 4350 on Linux Mint 14 Cinnamon. Live CD had splash but none after installing.Asked about getting back splash with no responses. Good luck and hope someone chimes in with the how & why's..

I also have the problem of the original splash screen missing when I install the Nvidia proprietary driver. That aside, the proprietary driver seems to have the fewest amount of quirks, though setting up three monitors with my two GTX 480's is proving problematic.

Hi, I went yesterday from Linux Mint 14 64bit to Linux Mint 15 64bit using a NVIDIA GTX570M graphics board on my laptop.For me also the ugly splash appears, but added to that it seems plymouth crashes, or nvidia drivers partially crashes. This happens randomly, and when it crashes, you may believe the whole system crashed. But if you wait a minute or so, the system will enter the graphichal login GUI. While waiting, I'm able to switch between text-output and the splash-dots-screen with the arrow-keys or any number on the numberpad....

First off, I'm not sure that this will work. It is from #!, but it is worth a try. I have used it on my desktop that has a Nvidia card. I also recommend that you make a backup of your grub before trying it. Here is the link:

none of these worked for me, there is something else in the boot sequence after grub that is controlling the nvidia splash, and resizing it so it is way too big for the monitor...its almost twice as big and out of frame, and i would rather just get rid of that instead of see it every time, it also slows down the loading process...

i updated my system to mint 16 and it has been correct from the beginning...will see if adding the second monitor to the system will screw it up again or not...but so far so good with just the single monitor...
